eToro On Track To Close Q4 With A 33% Jump In Revenue
In a report to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) this week, eToro revealed it was expecting an excellent finish to Q4. The broker is anticipating a 33% jump in commission revenue, bringing the quarter total to between $285 million and $295 million. The company also onboarded an impressive 2.1 million users in the final three months of the year.
Strong Financials
eToro, which is set to become a publicly listed company following its American SPAC merger, is closing the financial year after a solid final quarter. Revenues are up between 28% and 33% on the $164 million reported in the same period of 2020. This brings total commissions for the year to approximately $1.2 billion, representing a more than 100% increase on last year’s $602 million.
eToro’s 2.1 million new clients will also bring the broker’s total customer base to more than 27 million and is an increase on the 1.6 million new traders acquired in Q3 of 2021. Of course, this is all good news for the brokerage that is working to get its SPAC merger over the line, despite a series of recent delays.
eToro Co-Founder and CEO, Yoni Assia, commented: “Our preliminary fourth quarter 2021 financial metrics show continued strong growth and demonstrate that we are executing very well on our business plan… We continue to see a strong increase in the number of users engaging with our platform across our global footprint and are very excited for what lies ahead in 2022 and beyond.”
